When I was Young
When I was young, we lived in El Cajon, CA. A suburb of San Diego. We had moved there when I was six. Unlike Methuen, Massachusetts, where we came from, El Cajon was dry, somewhat like a desert. It has a semi-arid climate, with winters in the 60s and summers topping 100 degrees. We had left Massachusetts because of my sister Karen's chronic bronchitis, which left her coughing well into the night. My parents had seen the Rose Parade on TV...

The Meaning of Christmas is My Family
I didn't feel very good when I got on the plane from Boston to San Diego in October 2005. I didn't know what to do about my life, and only knew that I would be safe somewhere other than by myself in Boston. When the plane landed, I got a cab to my ex-husband's house, where his mother took me in for the night. The next morning, unbeknownst to me, she called my parents, who live in Las Vegas. They undertook the long... (posted by Darcy 5 years 54 days ago.)

Veronica Galati, Figurative Artist
Las Vegas artist Veronica Galati says that the "visual pictures" she gets of photographs and other images from life that she wants to paint are clear enough for her to capture them in her artwork. She holds the photograph, usually of a person or persons, up to her face and works from the picture that she gets of the photograph's subject. What is so unusual about this, you might ask? Veronica Galati is legally blind. ... (posted by Darcy 5 years 54 days ago.)

Economic Justice For All, Not Just the Poor
I am here to write today regarding economic issues faced by a few groups in this country. First, I would like to comment on the means testing that Social Security recipients are being subjected to at present. I will also discuss the building of most new hospitals, at present, in suburbs where people have insurance, rather than in cities, where people are underserved by doctors. Finally, I will tie this in... (posted by Darcy 5 years 74 days ago.)

The Coolidge Dogs: Are They Back?
Have you seen the pictures recently of the Coolidge Dogs (poker dogs)? Those are the dogs seen playing poker, shooting pool, watching a baseball game played by dogs, etc. These images, which began as a series of oil paintings by Cassius "Cash" Coolidge (1844-1934) in the 1920s, have been around for eighty years, and have appeared on calendars and even on TV as a commercial during the Super Bowl a few years back....
